About this audiobook

The Book of Wonder by Lord Dunsany, first published in 1912, is a classic collection of fourteen lyrical high fantasy tales. Inspired by the intricate illustrations of Sidney Sime, the stories blend mythic narratives, poetic prose, and cosmic mystery. This pioneering work served as a vital inspiration for legendary authors such as J.R.R. Tolkien and H.P. Lovecraft.
